Terrain Restaurant | Clayfield Hotel

About Terrain

Terrain is the signature dining experience at the Clayfield Hotel, an upscale wine country destination rooted in seasonality, terroir, exceptional food and wine, and genuine hospitality.

Our philosophy is simple: create memorable experiences through thoughtful service, meaningful connections, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Inspired by the bounty of Niagara wine country, Terrain celebrates local ingredients, culinary craftsmanship, and warm hospitality delivered with sophistication and authenticity.

As part of the opening team, you will play an integral role in shaping the culture, guest experience, and service standards of one of Niagara's premier dining destinations.

Position Summary

Terrain Restaurant is seeking a polished, engaging, and highly professional Full-Time PM Host to join our opening team.

The Host is the face of Terrain and the first and last impression of every guest experience. This role goes beyond seating and reservations—it is a concierge-level position responsible for welcoming guests, building genuine connections, guiding the guest experience, and ensuring every interaction reflects Forbes-level hospitality standards.

The Host will manage reservations and seating flow, support guest communication, and also take in-room dining (room service) orders with accuracy, warmth, and professionalism.

Menu knowledge is a core requirement of this role. The Host must confidently understand food, beverage, and in-room dining offerings in order to answer questions, make recommendations, and elevate the guest experience from the very first interaction.

We operate from a “place of yes,” where guest experience is always the priority, and where personality, professionalism, and genuine connection define success.

Maintain balanced pacing across dining sections to support optimal service delivery.
Escort guests to tables with professionalism and attention to detail.

In-Room Dining (Room Service)

Answer incoming phone calls and take accurate in-room dining (room service) orders.
Ensure all orders are entered clearly and communicated correctly to the kitchen and service team.
Provide warm, engaging, and professional guest interaction over the phone.
Maintain the same level of luxury hospitality on the phone as in-person guest interactions.

Menu Knowledge & Communication

Develop and maintain strong knowledge of all food, beverage, and in-room dining offerings.
Confidently answer guest questions regarding ingredients, preparation methods, and daily features.
Provide informed recommendations to enhance the guest experience.
Stay current on menu changes, seasonal updates, and special offerings.
Use menu knowledge to elevate guest confidence and satisfaction.

Operational Excellence

Maintain immaculate cleanliness and organization of the host stand and entry areas.
Ensure all guest-facing spaces are polished, welcoming, and visually aligned with luxury standards.
Answer phone calls, manage inquiries, and handle reservations professionally.
Support communication between guests, servers, bartenders, and leadership teams.
Assist with opening and closing duties of the host area.

Demonstrates pride in the entrance, reception, and guest flow experience.

Works closely with servers, bartenders, kitchen, and management to ensure seamless operations.
Supports colleagues during high-volume service periods.
Contributes to a respectful, collaborative, and high-performance environment.
